So here're my CDs : external image

Pretty small collection huh? It's roughly one year old and I didn't had any income before now so it didn't grow much during that year but things will change now that I have a job ! I plan to spend around 100$ a month on CDs so I should get a nice collection pretty fast.

Problem though, my musical knowledge is almost barren and I bought at least one CD from every artist I am interested in atm (missing like 4-5 artists).

My CD collection has a theme though : Girl Power. Atm I have only CDs from female solo artists or groups with female lead singers and I want to keep it that way, male voices don't please me that much so songs I like from male singers are few and far between. Anyway ! I would also like my collection to be multicultural and multi-language, atm I only have music in 4 different languages (French, English, Japanese, Korean, I plan to buy a Russian CD soon though) and that's where you guys come into play, most of you know much much more than me about music and thus are more likely to know artists I never heard of.

Note that I like every single genre to an extent, while I prefer Pop, Rock, Metal and Electronica the rest can be nice too so don't hesitate to post some other genre as well !

So uh yeah, just posts some link on there !

All of these are album titles. I'll post a track off of each one. And I have no idea what you already know and some of these are pretty well-known. =o

Alela Diane - The Pirate's Gospel


Title track. Standard folk.


The Birthday Massacre - Violet


Synth pop.


Lights - The Listening


More pop.


Emilie Autumn - Opheliac


I just think some of the tracks are catchy as hell like the one above.


Tegan and Sara - The Con


Indie/Alternative Pop.


Rilo Kiley - More Adventurous


Rilo Kiley - The Execution of All Things


Alternative rock.

From: Ayuyu | #001
My CD collection has a theme though : Girl Power. Atm I have only CDs from female solo artists or groups with female lead singers and I want to keep it that way


In that case, No Doubt's Tragic Kingdom and/or Rock Steady

I would also like my collection to be multicultural and multi-language, atm I only have music in 4 different languages (French, English, Japanese, Korean, I plan to buy a Russian CD soon though)


tATu -- 200 kmh in the wrong lane

also they are male but you gotta get Basshunter -- LOL <(^^,)> and Rammstein (all their albums have good stuff but you can start with Sehnsucht)

So from blindhobo :

Alela Diane - The Pirate's Gospel : Nice, not a genre I listen to often but I liked it !

The Birthday Massacre - Violet : Love this, especially the delicious music.

Lights - The Listening : Pretty nice.

Emilie Autumn - Opheliac : Love, love, LOVE this will definitely look for more later, my amazon.com finger is already itching, actually ***** it, already bought.

Tegan and Sara - The Con : Pretty good ! The girls ain't really pretty though, but that's completely irrelevant.

Rilo Kiley : I like her, especially that 2nd song !

I'll listen to the rest of you guys suggestions soon.
